Friday Jan. 6th, would have been my son, Matt's 28th birthday, another "first" without him. We will be remembering Matt by having some of Matt's closest friends over for a get together.

I look back over the past 8 months and wonder how in the world I have managed to cope with the loss of Matt, some days the pain is just unbearable. I am fortunate in that I have been able to keep myself busy with "Matt" projects with the wonderful treasure of pictures and artwork that Matt left behind.

I can't begin to describe how much I miss him and long for the day that we will be together again.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATT

Love

MA

I'll be praying for you and thinking of you tomorrow. It's hard to get through those firsts, but I know you'll do Matt proud, hard though it might be.

I know looking back over the 8 months, (8 months for me, too, today) sometimes it seems hard to remember anything good, because it makes now seem even a paler shade by comparision. But, that's what you have to cling to, is your memories, and don't be afraid to indulge in them as much as you need to. And do what feels right for you. On my husband's birthday, a few weeks after he died, I made a cake. Crazy by conventional standards? Probably. What I needed to do? Absolutely.

I'll be thinking of you. Don't be afraid to ask for help.

I will be thinking of you tomorrow. On my husband's 'first birthday' without him, a bunch of us went to a hockey game- his favorite sport. I also baked a cake, not making one just seemed so wrong. I find sometimes it helps to do normal things because not having David is so abnormal.

Take care, Melissa
